SAN JOSE — Three people were killed and four others injured in a rollover highway crash in South San Jose on Saturday night, authorities said.

Around 11:10 p.m. Saturday, a gray Chevrolet Tahoe was traveling north on Highway 101, just south of Bernal Avenue, when the driver “swerved to the left for an unknown reason, causing the vehicle to veer to the left, colliding with the metal and wooden guardrail,” the California Highway Patrol, said in a report.

The Tahoe, which was carrying seven people, “rolled over from the impact” and landed on its roof in the fast lane, the CHP said.

Three passengers were pronounced dead at the scene, while the remaining three passengers and driver were taken to local hospitals for treatment.

The ages and identities of the people killed were not immediately available.

The crash forced the closure of all northbound lanes of Highway 101 in that area, and traffic was diverted around the crash for several hours. All lanes were reopened around 4:25 a.m., officials said.

The crash is still being investigated; however, alcohol and drugs do not appear to be a factor, the CHP said.
